- immibis 3y agoNo, it's just counterproductive to attack warning signs instead of attacking the thing they are warning you about.
- davidmurdoch 3y agoSee?
- doktrin 3y ago> See? I see you being deliberately antagonistic and strawmanning an opinion you disagree with.

- immibis 3y agoI will never understand "I said $dumb_thing and the fact everyone downvoted me for saying $dumb_thing proves that $dumb_thing is right!"
- davidmurdoch 3y agoThat's the same logic cookie banner lovers are using in this very post. I am just matching that energy. Have you really not noticed how defensive and antagonistic cookie banner supporters become when people say anything negative about it?
- kys_now 3y agoDon’t bully them, they’re just a little slow in the head.

- hef19898 3y agoFrom the HN guidelines: >> Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.
- davidmurdoch 3y agoThose are good guidelines
- everforward 3y agoYou can attack both when the people trying to warn you are incompetent. This was an obvious second order effect; if they tell businesses "we don't want you to do this, so you can't unless you put up a sign" it should never be a surprise to see signs sprouting up on the landscape. Teenagers could have predicted this was the likely outcome. Whoever wrote it was either incredibly incompetent in not predicting this outcome or intended this outcome.
